Lost Inside Life

Civil War

Upon a benighted night is civil war

a sniper up on rooftop to lore

two sides to battle, where to stand

an antic there was to be planned

One more cut down, on the ground

stuck on one side of life, bound

one more loss of life to mourn

another life stripped away, another life torn

Is there ever an end in sight

to become an exquisite morning light

darkness and evil is all they have known

one day soon, someone will claim the throne
